Oak Grove Real Estate
Oak Grove, Kentucky may sound like a small town with old fashioned values, but there is more to this quaint community. It's not only the second largest city in Christian County, but Oak Grove also borders Clarksville, Tennessee to the south and Interstate 24 to the north. With a population of approximately 8,000 residents, Oak Grove is a very young, progressive-minded community with a large portion of military personnel living here.
Oak Grove neighbors Fort Campbell, the home of the 101st Airborne Division, and 90 percent of Oak Grove’s population is either military personnel, their families or related businesses and services. You'll find that housing, dining, shopping and other services are extremely affordable, in support of our military residents, and they bring diversity to Oak Grove that appeals to the thousands of servicemen and women who come to Fort Campbell from all over the country.
The opportunities available for residents attract not only soldiers but young families and retirees to the area. Christian County Public Schools, one of the finest districts in Kentucky, serves the community's elementary and secondary educational needs in Oak Grove. Hopkinsville Community College and Austin Peay State University, which is located in Clarksville, are only two of the outstanding higher educational facilities that serve the needs of students. Oak Grove is also an ideal retirement area due to its proximity to Fort Campbell, to many large cities, and many of Kentucky's best resorts and state parks, which are a paradise for fishermen and water sports enthusiasts as well as those who enjoy hiking.
In addition, Oak Grove offers outdoor recreational facilities, museums, music venues, antique stores, small-town festivals and more.
